Me: Charly certified USPTA and USPTR tennis and fitness coach wanted to offer a way to reach more people to learn to play tennis without belonging or having to pay high prices to any tennis club. I have 10 years of experience teaching tennis at all levels and ages. My biomechanical teaching methods are meant to help people learn to play tennis in the easiest and most natural way using their body the correct way; but my main focus is that people have fun playing and learning tennis since this is a non-competitive tennis group.

Rules of conduct:

• Please maintain a friendly attitude on the courts since we are all here to learn and have fun. Be aware that everybody has a different skills set and we have to respect each other. Please don't be offended if I address you individually if I observe any bad sportsmanship. Continuing bad behavior may result in expulsion from the meetup group. I hope everyone understands.

This is a tennis group for adults beginners, intermediates and advanced who want to have fun learning and playing tennis.

• Totally new to tennis, have never played, taken a few lessons or haven't taken lessons at all.

• Technically might not have or might have basic knowledge of forehand and backhands but still are not able to rally consistently with players of their same level.

• Focus on improving technique, footwork and consistency on rallies.

Intermediate:

• Have taken lesson and played before but not too often.

• Technically are able to hit serves consistently in the court and are able to rally with fluent forehand or backhands with players or their same level. Have basic knowledge of volley and can rally.

• Tactically can place and hit tennis balls across court and down the line and also have variation on power and height.

• Intermediate lesson are focus on improving consistency, control and placement on court while improving footwork.

Advanced:

• Take lessons regularly and play matches often, for practice or competitively.

• Focus on match play with strategy and developing more power and accuracy on shots while improving fitness condition.

1.-1 Person policy:

• If only one person RSVP for a group lesson, that automatically will be cancel. Minimum requirement will be 2 people. When the lessons is cancel I will regroup that person and change their RSVP, so they can come for the next group hour, only if they have the right level for the next lesson.

• If a lesson is cancel due a one person policy, that person has the option to make it a private lesson, ($30).

MOVING UP A LEVEL

• I am the only one who can determine whether you are ready for the next level or not. Please do not RSVP for a level up if I haven't been approved yet. Please consult me in advance. Thanks for your understanding.

Steps for morning group lessons.

1.-RSVP "YES" if you are coming to secure your spot on the lesson. Update RSVP to "NO" if you are not attending.

2.-First come first serve, people who RSVP first have preference. Groups might mix sometimes, so be aware that I might regroup you according to your level, so everybody can work on exercises for their own level. I hope everybody understands.
